My point was that you don't need to use software to do just that.
You're not most people. You're not even most anti-capitalists or revolutionaries. It's important to stay grounded in the reality of meeting people where they're at. If you're expecting your revolution to be populated by tech savvy people, I've got some bad news to break to you.
I agree, that's why FOSS is the ethical choice. But that doesn't get us closer to a revolution. If I understood your last paragraph, it was a bit hard to follow.
And my point is using the reference as a metaphor for something I'm not willing to discuss in this environment. I'm waiitng for SAFENetwork to build a sustainable environment to build a proper revolution.
There will never be a meaingful awareness of this shit and everyone will die because bio-/tech/etc.- virus/baked planet/pollution/AI/etc.?
I know that already. My project is to figure out how to get people to learn what is necessary to survive.
Guess what? Everyone will die. In less than a decade. Guaren-fucking-teed.
Revolution is pretty much irrelevant because this will happen either way. It doesn't fucking matter.
Counterpoint that be only one I've thought of or heard of. FOSS-AI can counter and crack all Closed Source AI and pretty much all personal computers with helpful virus infections that rebuild the target to GNU/Linux.
Whatever. It don't matter. Either way I'll find my soul a whole damn new galaxy cuz I ain't comin' back here.
